Be ready to fight to the death for parking. This place is packed, like other reviewers have indicated. A line as soon as I went in, but it was moving pretty quickly. Staff was friendly. I had my heart and mind set on the chile relleno burrito. You can watch them make the tortillas. I went with that, and without meat, which may have been a mistake on my part. They were very quick! I took it to go, since it was pretty busy inside. The flour tortilla was made fresh, so that definitely added to the burrito, and the chile relleno was so good. I’m sort of glad I didn’t get meat so I got more of the chile relleno. And the price point didn’t really sink my wallet too much. I wish I could come back and try it with meat. If you like a burrito, come here and try the chile relleno burrito.

Completely underwhelmed. The parking lot was packed and so was inside. It took a while to get my burrito I almost asked if they forgot about me. $15 for a chile relleno burrito is insane, and I didn’t even eat it because instead of the traditional sauce there was chunks of tomato in it.

he service and food here are both excellent. The chile relleno with chicken was full of flavor, and the asada burrito is definitely a standout. Their handmade flour tortillas really make a difference—soft, fresh, and perfectly wrapped around generous fillings. The restaurant has its own parking lot and plenty of indoor seating, which is convenient. Prices are a bit on the higher side, but the quality easily justifies it, even with a short wait. I didn’t realize this spot was TikTok famous, but after eating here, it’s easy to see why.

La Azteca is still one of our favorite burrito places. They moved from their original location. Love their tortilla!!! It reminds me of Taiwanese breakfast egg wrap (dan bing). They also sell their tortillas here. I’m a big fan of their nopales (cactus) and egg burrito. They are popular for the burritos….cleaner or fresher and simple ingredients?
NOPALE’S & EGG Burrito $10.
cactus.grilled.tomato.onion.cilantro,refried beans
– they can make it without eggs (make it vegan). Or my favorite is only without beans due dietary issues with it. Not a problem for them.
The SO loves their Asada Burrito. He said Chorizo is okay and felt like baby food in texture.
Red and Green sauce. Both are super spicy. Medium spicy lovers will like it. Mild spicy will have to up our game or use your own home sauce.
We loved their previous location at Cesar Chavez due to walkable convenience. It was also around the street of bakeries, and nice stroll around the block. Both their old and new location has difficult parking. This new location at least has a parking lot for them, and more indoor seating.

Solid breakfast burritos, but the real star is their handmade tortilla. The burritos were enjoyable, with a good balance of ingredients. As for the bean and cheese burrito, it was tasty, but surprisingly, the cheese-to-bean ratio was a bit much. Still, the quality of the tortilla alone makes it worth a visit.

Lived in the area for 3 years didn’t know this place was tik tok famous. Finally tried it today 12/14/25 7:10am. Had the chicharon burrito. Paid for an extra sauce so I could try the green and red sauce. Both sauces are great. $4 for mediocre lemonade is criminal. The burrito was wrapped all sloppy and by the time I got home it was room temperature. Definitely will try out again. The asada burrito. Maybe it was too early. Even tho it was 7 am it was busy but I just didn’t understand the hype.

This place is popular. Full tables and phone orders. Price wise, a bit on the high side. Burrito was fresh with fresh and delicious. Well worth the price and the small wait.
Saw firefighters and Sheriff ordering as well. Order ahead for lunch time.

Hmm. So 7 years later and same basic review. Just ok. Not worth the drive or parking. Love love love that they have a chile relleno burrito with choice of meat, but just wasn’t worth the extra effort. Asada was kinda plain and lacked the flavor we have gotten used to in LA. Chicharron was decent, but hand made tortilla was highlight. So many mom and pop caneceria’s with as good or better. Just can be so much better if they wanted to, but then again, maybe that’s what regulars want. To each their own.

Tortilla was perfect. Service was quick, portions were great and price was right. The problem was the filling. I had the Al pastor and it was not good. Not much flavor and lots of chewy gristly meat. Everything else was on point so try a different filling if you come.

Friend took me here. Food is authentic from the tortilla to the beans. I ordered a Chile rellno with asada burrito. Everything was great, highly recommend for Mexican food
